Have you ever wondered what exactly animal cloning is or how it works but never got around to it? Well animal cloning can help with many things that could change how we see our planet. But it could also ruin things and cause many problems in the future. Today I will be persuading you about the disadvantages of animal cloning by, first, telling you what could go wrong when cloning an animal, second, telling you why we should not bring back some extinct animals, and finally, I will tell you why it is so expensive and dangerous to clone animals. Even though we have successfully cloned cats, dogs, sheep, pigs, and many more. Those clones took a lot of time and a lot of money, but so many failures to finally have an end product (?Advantages and Disadvantages of Cloning?).

scientist first cloned an animal in 1996, it was a sheep named Dolly. Even though they successfully cloned their first mammal, it took them 250 tries to successfully get her (?9 Key Disadvantages and Advantages?). In 2006 a woman named Bernann Mckinney cloned her pet dog for $50,000. When the woman found out her best friend was diagnosed with cancer, she got a sample of her dog?s frozen cells to someday get her best friend back. In 2008, Mckinney was welcomed with five cloned puppies (Arnold; ?Animal Cloning??). Animals cloning is banned in a country called the European Union which is located in Belgium. Even though it is banned, the European Union still trades with third world countries that did not ban animal cloning. Since cloning is banned so are the cloned embryos and semen (?Ban Not Just Animal Cloning?). It is a whole lot easier to naturally breed animals rather than having to buy several eggs just to produce one cloned animal (?Advantages and Disadvantages of Cloning Animals?).
When trying to clone just one animals it takes up to thousands of embryos and several pregnancies only to produce one clone. This happened when scientist created the first cloned pet dog named Snuppy. Snuppy took one thousand embryos, three pregnancies, and finally one pregnancy was successful and Snuppy was born (Arnold; ?What Are the Ricks??). Why do I know better than my opponent? Well because of the cloned animal?s short life span, many meat companies are having a hard time commercializing the cloned meats because people fear there is something wrong with the cloned animals and that it could cause problems for those who eat their meat. Extinct animals are extinct for a reason. Just think of all the things that could go wrong. Those animals such as the wooly mammoth and the sabre tooth tiger, if we were to bring them back it would be chaos. It would take too much money and too much time that we probably don?t have to successfully
clone. Today I have tried to persuade you of the disadvantages of animal cloning by, first, telling you what could go wrong when cloning animals , second, telling you why we should not bring back extinct animals, and lastly, I told you why it is so expensive and dangerous to clone animals. When summing up the points, animal cloning can cause problems and is very expensive. It is banned in some countries but that doesn?t stop people from selling cloned animals in those countries. Now that you know all the bad facts about animal cloning, you know not to support it.
